Q

DISCONTINUED APPROACH

“Cancel Approach”

A

“Cancel Approach”

  1. Deselect LOC/APPR Mode
  2. Select Lateral mode as req -NAV or HDG
  3. Select vertical mode as req -Level Off / V/S
  4. Select Speed

NB: Above FCU Altitude:
Can choose discontinued approach or Go Around

Q

GLIDESLOPE INTERCEPT FROM ABOVE

A

Only apply if established on Localiser
Must react without delay for stabilisation

For best RoD, when cleared by ATC and below limiting speeds:
• Lower landing gear
• Flaps as req (At least CONF 2)

If above glideslope:
Localiser...……CHECK ESTABLISHED
LANDING GEAR................……..DOWN
FLAPS.........……..CONF 2 or GREATER
APPR MODE….ARM / CHECK ARMED
FCU ALT…………...SET ABOVE A/C ALT
V/S MODE……........……………….SELECT
  • Select 1500fpm initially
  • V/S >2000fpm will result in speed increasing toward VFE
  • When reaching VFE, AP maintains VFE and reduces V/S without mode reversion
